824 Chapter 824

*BANG!*

Their fists collided with a dull thud of defeat!

The mocking expression on Reverend Jor Har's face disappeared as quickly as it appeared as his eyes narrowed into a thin line! At the same time, even the Holy Maiden of the Pure Maidens Sect was dumbfounded with pure shock!

The golden lustrous light that contained boundless power and energy on Reverend Jor Har's fist was dispersed by the strange burly, scaleless man's fist, scattering everywhere like sparks!

As the fists collided, a visible air fluctuation spread out along with a heatwave that possessed an astonishing aftershock!

The burly man did not even take a half-step back and his fist was completely undamaged!

On the contrary, Reverend Jor Har staggered three steps back and his expression gradually darkened.

The burly man pulled the Holy Maiden by the arm and brought her behind him. With a calm expression and a sharp gaze, he glared at Reverend Jor Har.

The situation came to a momentary calm with the appearance of the burly man.

Both the crazed looking Reverend and the woman in white robes, Sylvie Deva were trying to size up this unknown, mysterious newcomer, this weird burly man, wanting to make out something from him.

He had rough facial features, thick eyebrows, large eyes, that also carried a strange source of power in them, shining with a dull golden hue all the time, and a wide nose and mouth. Bulky, he was at least a two meters tall giant and his palms and arms were thick as were his fingers.

His gripped fists resembled a pair of terrifying maces!

Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva's brow raised slightly; she could not see anything familiar about the burly man. She was certain that prior to this, she had never seen this man before, much less know him. Yet, for some unknown reason, this stranger came to her aid without hesitation, without a question.

Though it was quite lucky for her however, -for some unknown reason-, she felt that something was amiss.

She tilted her head, deep in thought.

After looking at the burly man from head to toe a couple of times without any conclusion, the old man Reverend Jor Har could not help but ask with a deep and wary voice.

"Friend, what sect or faction are you from?"

"Hmm… Who knows, what's it to you?" The burly man replied indifferently. "I may or may not be coming from a faction at all."

Thinking that the burly man just revealed the truth, the Reverend sneered. Giving a slight bow, Reverend Jor Har's gaze gradually turned cold as he said icily.

"Since you're an itinerant adventurer, I would like to advise you not to get involved in this lest you attract trouble for yourself!"

"Hmm… How interesting." The burly man smiled and replied aggressively, not minding the threatening tone at all. "That's quite interesting! Do tell, if I insist on interfering, what can you do?"

"You do know that the girl behind you is the Holy Maiden of one of the most evil demonic sects of the world! She is someone that kills without batting an eyelid and her hands are deeply soaked in blood!" Reverend Jor Har's voice turned increasingly louder as he exclaimed his self-proclaimed judgement.

"And? Me… and in fact you as well, despite being a priest and preaching for the greater good… your hands are drenched in the blood of countless innocents… hypocrite."

"W-what?! H-how dare you! S-Slander! I'm a member of the Ancient One's servants and she is just an evil demoness! A witch!"

"Yeah… and?"

The two of them spoke in a tit-for-tat manner and instantly, the atmosphere on the battlefield turned tense, filled with killing intent. However, at that moment, Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva felt an unprecedented calmness in her heart!

It was as though the mighty back view of the figure in front of her could defend her from any danger! Though she did not know who this man was, or why was he doing what he was doing as she was certain he was not under her influence at all… in the end, he still came to her rescue!

Even if… she was someone from the fiend sects, he did not hesitate!

"Well, well, well… All right!"

Reverend Jor Har nodded repeatedly. When he opened his eyes once again, two golden beams of light shot out and his aura surged. It was the secret, unique skill he learned, the one he used to crush the Holy Maiden a bit before, the [Enraged Heavenly Tiger Gaze]!

Ocular Techniques or better known, eye secret skills could not only affect the minds of martial artists but they were also released instantly, making it difficult for opponents to defend against.

"Be careful, watch out!" Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva had already sensed that something was amiss the moment she saw Reverend Jor Har's gaze shine.

However, just as her warning came forth, her voice was drowned by Reverend Jor Har's loud, cackling voice that roared like thunder!

There was no trace of holiness in his tone anymore, it sounded just as evil, and conniving as any other.

"Since you choose to protect that girl, you're choosing to be enemies with the Ancient One! It is my sacred duty to remove the world of your filth! DIE!"

Reverend Jor Har berated and every single word of his struck at one's mind like a heavy bell. That wasn't a simple outcry but instead carried traces of mana in them… It was another secret technique of their fearsome group, which earned their place as one of the most terrifying forces, this world ever carried: it was a nameless sonic technique they used to overpower masses.

These two skills were what Reverend Jor Har used earlier to injure Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva instantly and seize the advantage.

Under normal circumstances, ordinary martial artists would suffer blinding pain in their eyes and buzzing in their ears against these two instantaneous techniques. In a moment of panic, they would definitely reveal openings.

However contrary to what should have been expected, the burly man's expression was unchanged and even a strange, otherworldly glint shone in his eyes.

The two incoming streaks of gold light disappeared in midair.

Taking a deep breath of air, the burly man's chest puffed up and his body swelled a little as if he was a balloon.

The next moment, he opened his mouth and interrupted Reverend Jor Har with an immensely powerful shout.

"KNEEL!"

*BOOM!*

The moment he exclaimed, it seemed the entire realm, together with the heavenly firmament above shook in terror!

An explosion like thunder crushed over heavily as if a massive army was trampling through everything. An impossible, archaic energy emerged and pressed on the world itself in the next moment!

Before Reverend Jor Har could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the burly man and the air in his chest was blocked. It was extremely unbearable as his face turned pale, impacting his aura. He could barely resist the boundless energy pushing him down and remaining standing with all his resistance he could muster.

The two of them were extremely close and with a single huge stride, the burly man arrived before Reverend Jor Har almost in the blink of an eye.

*BOOM!*

He stomped his feet heavily on the ground and the earth and mountains shook. In fact, two gigantic ravines appeared in the ground behind him as the mud was overturned!

Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva was shocked and her alluring lips spread open slightly as she watched everything in disbelief. Though she could vaguely sense the strange energy, for some reason it avoided her and did not cause any harm for her.

Just who was this person?

Even pure-blooded ferocious beasts wouldn't cause such an impact if they crossed rampantly!

The pure-blooded ferocious beast below the arrogant reverend was initially watching coldly from the sidelines. However, it was shocked when it sensed the aura of the burly man and its fur stood on end, causing its entire body to expand greatly!

This was the natural reaction of a demon beast when it sensed extreme danger. At that moment, in terms of aura, the burly man had already crushed Reverend Jor Har completely!

*SWOOSH!*

The burly man reached out with his palm and descended from above, slapping towards Reverend Jor Har with an aura that threatened to engulf the vast lands. His fingers spread open and his massive palm seemed like it was about to consume the heavens and suppress the eight desolates!

Now that he lost the initiative, Reverend Jor Har was shocked. He did not have time to equip any of his treasure artifacts from his storage bag and could only prop up his arms in defense against the colossal force with his mana alone.

*BOOM!*

The burly man's palm crushed heavily against Reverend Jor Har's arms.

Instantly, Reverend Jor Har seemed like he had turned shorter as his feet sank deep into the ground beyond his knees!

At that moment, Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva felt like she was witnessing a great demonic god that stood tall in the sky, looking down at the vast world as he crushed an ant, this powerless mortal with his gigantic palm!
